Here is what I propose, like most people we probably have holidays booked already for 2010 (I have 2 with 1 still to pay).
We cannot book them until late March / beg April 2010 for 2011 Season.

So far we have a list of people who are prepared to join the "Takeover 2011 Tour" (my new name for it)

Me and Mark
Nelly and Mr Nelly
Tony H and Mrs H
Stewart and OH
Ellistine and Mrs Ellistine
Mfc and OH
Snowb4ndit and Scalpula
Dalerobers, OH + son
Rustyinn and OH (possibly + 2 more)
Eljay


A few others who are possibles and making their own way there.

What I propose to do is this: -

E-mail a few companies who have chalets in Zermatt that could either take the above amount of people in 1 chalet or 2 adjoining Chalets.
Get some estimations from them for Jan 2011 (8th Jan Departure)
Discuss potential offers i.e. discount for whole chalet occupancy, BOGOF Lift Passes or Free Lift Passes.

What I would need to know from everyone: -

City you live (to choose a suitable airport in the middle or request specifics for people)
For the children who are included in the above list would you require triple rooms (need to make sure the chalet has these)

Pay the deposit at the end of march 10 / beginning of April if I can find something suitable.

What do you reckon?

If you agree, please PM me and I will start making a list.
If you dont mind, include an e-mail address so I can communicate easier with everyone.

Applying the same logic as the previous calculation I guess that Chalet Kamanga would be around 500pp as it is 570pp.

Zermatt Chalets did ask about this chalet but I couldn't remember how many people were looking at going.

So shall I check with them?

If the entire chalet was booked for 2nd Week in January 2011, it would be approx 600pp (incl flights and transfers etc).
This was the indicative prices given by Zermatt Chalets this morning.
It has a discount of around 90 per person applied based on this Jan 10 prices.
They also said that it is highly likely that they will be offering a lift pass deal in April 10 for Jan 11 bookings, either BOGOF or free lift passes (current lift pass for Zermatt and Cervinia Area is 247gbp).

However they did state that the Chalet accomodates only 12 people.

I just thought that I would call a company to see what they would consider offering.
